Quite honestly, I didn't know what the time frame of the original
question was--I did mention the Univac SS-80, however--and I did make
reference to strange designs of the 50s.
But "computer" isn't very specific. How about the hybrid computers
of the 60s? How about the "mostly diodes and not a lot of
transistor" machines like the PB250?
Some parameters for the original question might be helpful.

Chuck,
I agree with you on all your points. And add the Recomp jukebox series to
the all diode machines. They had less than 100 flip-flops per system!
